Welcome to Wikipedia, Réalgard! I'm CFA, and I've been assigned as your mentor. About half of new Wikipedia accounts receive a mentor chosen randomly from a list of volunteers. It just means I'm here to help with anything you need! We need to have all kinds of people working together to create an online encyclopedia, so I'm glad you're here. Over time, you will figure out what you enjoy doing the most on Wikipedia.

You might have noticed that you have access to a tutorial and suggested edits. It's recommended that you take advantage of this, as it'll make learning how to edit Wikipedia easier.

If you need assistance with anything or have any questions, click on the "Get editing help" button on the bottom right corner of your screen. This will open up a module with links to help pages and a place to ask me questions. You can also ask me questions directly on my talk page, or go here to get help from the wider community.

Again, welcome to Wikipedia! C F A 💬 20:49, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Réalgard, I, as a bystander, have the impression that you have been rapidly gaining Extended Confirmed Status. While this is not fundamentally an issue, I wonder if you have had an account before and/or could briefly explain the purposes of this one. Your interests seem to be very much restricted to the ARBPIA content area. Biohistorian15 (talk) 10:36, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Making more helpful edits

[edit]

Edits like these are not very helpful to our readers. Keep in mind that sidebars can only be added if WP:BIDIRECTIONAL is met, and even then are not helpful in every case—particularly when they crowd out encyclopedically relevant images, tables, or graphs. "See also" sections, if they are composed of relevant links, are largely composed of links that would be in the article if it were improved. I suggest that instead of putting in see also sections and sidebars, you find sources and work on actually expanding the article, which would then include more links that you consider relevant.

Adding largely irrelevant links to a template doesn't improve things for our readers; templates can only be useful for navigation if kept concise and restricted to the most relevant links. (t · c) buidhe 15:17, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's about nutritional pathology, hardly useless, to me the template feels small and incomplete. Réalgard (talk) 15:20, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The template is about the medical effects, not the political causes, of nutritional (in)adequacy. I would suggest you gain more experience actually building content before spending so much time moving links around where they may not be helpful. (t · c) buidhe 15:35, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
